SBS Compounds
These materials are a reliable, recyclable alternative to vulcanized rubber in design-driven or comfort-focused applications. Each formulation is developed to balance elasticity, durability and process stability in demanding environments.
Features and Benefits
- Excellent flexibility and rebound
- Rubber-like appearance and tactile softness
- Good abrasion resistance and low-temperature performance
- Wide processing and melt flow range
- Better cold flexibility than plasticized PVC
- Easily colorable with uniform surface aesthetics
- Recyclable and compatible with multi-material designs
Compliance and Support
Our team provides full technical and regulatory support with:
- Technical Data Sheets (TDS) and MSDS, upon request
- Guidance on selection for mechanical and sensory properties
- REACH and RoHS compliant formulations
- Support for homologation, including application-specific testing input
Processing Compatibility
SBS compounds are optimized for:
- Standard thermoplastic injection molding
- Extrusion of flexible strips and sealing elements
- Intrusion molding for thick-walled profiles
- Overmolding in multi-material part design
- Consistent output with good dimensional control
Applications for SBS Compounds
- Soft-touch consumer products
- Packaging elements
- Automotive interior components
- Flexible construction profiles
- Footwear soles, midsoles and inserts
- Grips, handles and overmolded parts
Built to Provide Flexibility, Grip and Comfort
Our SBS (styrene–butadiene–styrene) compounds are thermoplastic elastomers that combine the flexibility and tactile feel of rubber with the processing ease of standard thermoplastics. They are ideal for applications where comfort, grip and impact absorption are essential.
